Can't wait for both of them though.

Ah true, didn't realize you were just referring to game engine content rather than overall content!
You know, I need to look up that Mass Effect game, because I practically know nothing about it, but I've been avidly eating up all I can find on Blue Dragon
. I can't help it when it has all but one of the main people who made my favorite SNES RPG (Chrono Trigger) as only Yasunori Mitsuda is missing (but Uematsu did help him with the music). But for all we know, Mitsuda may help in some fashion... since he now does freelance work if I remember correctly.

Damnit! I'm up to 499 out of 500 orbs found in Crackdown. I actually sat down this morning, and in an hour and a half of looking, I was able to find 5 of the remaining 6 I had left at the time. There's no telling where that last one is .
Somebody on the net has made a map of all the hidden orbs, but I haven't decided if I want to sit down and get them all. I currently have around 170 of 300 of those, over 100 found by looking for the last 10 or 20 green orbs.

Anyone pick up MLB 2K7 or Bullet Witch? MLB got decent reviews and Bullet Witch seems "meh" but I'm kinda interested in both.

BW looks kinda nifty.. is there a demo available? Oddly enough, I was in Circuit City last night, but I didn't see it there. I'll go check some reviews online later and maybe pick it up (add it to the collection of games I don't play >_> ).
EDIT: Read the review and they say it's horrid. Although the girl wears a school girl outfit

I searched all of the islands, couldn't find my last 2. I *thought* i checked the whole islands, but like you I have no idea where they could be. So close to the achievement.

Heh I'm stuck at 498 but I haven't ooked for any in a few days. It's such a pain trying to find them, and I wish you could lock it at night time cause it makes it a lot easier to find them.

I"m going to try to coop with someone tonight and scavenge all the islands. Might be better with two people in case I miss something.
Crackdown is crack! MS has yet another hit on their hands with this. I can't imagine what part 2 will offer. I would like to see the following

That doesn't help you at all, though, unless you coop with someone who is missing the exact same orbs, which is highly unlikely. I've been going back through all the boss areas and looking again, hoping I've missed something. I've checked all the rocky areas around the shore lines, and it's getting to the point that if I'm searching the rooftops, I know I've already been there 2 or 3 times before, so it gets to be frustrating.Originally posted by: chrisg22

I'm so close, though, that I'm still committed to putting in more time. I don't even care about the achievement points, at this point I feel that I haven't completed the game. It's like playing a game for 15-20 hours, getting up to the door that leads to the last guy, then quitting altogether.

I actually heard that an update is going to add a company motorcycle as well as new gangs. I don't remember where I heard it, but if I find it again I'll link it here.
Personally I don't care about he motorcycle, I hardly use vehicles anyways heh. But it would be fun to screw around in and try to get some of the stunt markers with a motorcycle.

I think that all of the vehicles that aren't agency vehicles are horrible and worthless. I hardly even use the agency vehicles, and probably never would if it wasn't for the achievements. We need some more tall buildings to climb!!

I've played 3 games in season mode and it's fun as hell, so much better than 2k6. I accidentally beaned a batter, and the next time my pitcher was up he got beaned on the first pitch and then their pitcher was ejected. It has the current rosters (I'm a Cubs fan and was happy as hell to see Soriano batting leadoff), and I wonder if they'll update them as the season goes on.
Only played the first 3 games, and they were against Cincy, so I'll have to wait to see what it's like to play the deadbirds (cards). So far so good and no freeze ups.
Biggest disappointment: fans still look like crap. about 6 different models throughout the entire stadium.

Hmm...good to hear (read). I'll have to pick this up. I was really excited about 2K6 until I read about all the bugs so I was weary on picking up this game just on impulse last night.

I've got the hidden orb map as well as the ign guide with the map to all the agility orbs (if you are crazy enough to go to each one from the map
) it also has a guide on everything in the game, it's a 26 MB pdfAll in all the game is a lot of fun...still a lot that could be better...but it gives us baseball fans hope!

PM sent. It's actually pretty neat to look at but 500 orbs is a LOT to track down. good luck
Picked up 2k7 on tuesday and i have to say its 100 times better than last year and even better than the 2k7 demo. if your expecting it to play like mvp basbeall your not going to like it though. Its a good game of baseball just different than mvp.

I'm crazy enough to do it also. I'm an Insider, so I know of the guide you are talking about. Plus, I just recently started work for a large printer manufacturer, so there's plenty of paper and ink to go around to print out the orb pages of that pdf and cross them off. Wouldn't take no more than a couple of hours to go through the whole thing, less time if the orb I need is pretty low on the list. Hell, I'll probably spend that much time searching anywayOriginally posted by: chrisg22

.I'm sad to say that I played Crackdown looking for orbs that past 2 or 3 mornings, putting in a couple of hours a morning. Yesterday, I was driving to work, and there was this antenna coming up that was on the side of the road. I couldn't see the top of it, since it was out of view of the windsheild. Sadly, I caught myself leaning forward to glance the top (presumably to see if an orb was up there).
Somebody shoot me .Worms next week!
Microsoft annouced a few minutes ago that Worms would finally be released on Xbox Live Arcade next wednesday. Excellent news, with 3 new screens
Update: the game will cost 800 points. Good price.
